I have kde on my slackware 10.1 box, and installed freerock gnome, mainly for compatibility with some GTK apps...but now my menu in KDE resembles the gnome menu organization. This wouldn't be so bad, except in each subcategory is a zillion applications - everything gnome and kde have to offer...I tried to clean it up with kmenuedit, but it seems saving the configuration has not effect whatsoever on the menu. I tried it before installing gnome so I know it should work. Any help would be appreciated.

KDE Menus might get changed
Posted 2005/02/22 @ 00:30 EST by freerock
The KDE menus might be changed if you install FRG because of the gnome-menus package, The gnome-menus package implements the freedesktop.org desktop menu spec. There is a simple fix for this. Just add the following near the top of the startkde script:
export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/opt/kde/etc/xdg
If the improper menus persist, run kbuildsycoca from Konsole after you have logged into KDE. Thanks to Jim Philips and Locustfurnace for pointing it out.
